Weather update.

I predict hot and sunny in the mid twenties. However pack the waterproofs as we are going to see some occasional heavy thunderstorms.

The gap in the cyclonic system I mentioned earlier looks like it's going to settle northern coast of France on Thursday through to Sunday. It will bring hot but unstable weather with it.

hi grant ,johnathan,
i think we are going to have to revise the timings.
i think you will have to look at being at your parking by 18:00.
the A34 is a busy road and you will be lucky to average 40mph. its 120mls so we will have to give ourselves 3hrs. better to be early than late.
so can you be at m40 j10 for 14:30 hrs ? to be on our way no later than 15:00hrs.
johnathan, can we revise our meeting time at m42 j2 to 13:00hrs ,to be away by 13:30 ?

Fantastic photos Brian. I hope that you have a fantastic time. We certainly did last year and I think it will be very emotional. Better take some tissues with you.

Have a very safe trip and looking forward to seeing the photos.

Cheers

Dave

Is every one using the GB sticker on their numberplate?

Looks mandatory and I don't want to be the odd one out ie get stopped.
